This is really a rounded up 3.5 stars rating, only because the food I got was quick and actually really good. The experience, less so. I gotta seated right away, and was directed to the now-inevitable QR code menu. However the picture in the frame at the table was not good and took me a bunch of tries to access. Once there, it's a mess to navigate. Stuff is all over the place and some sections are duplicated, which just adds to the visual noise. There is also stuff pictured at the top that I couldn't find anywhere in the pricing below. Once I finally found something, my server was very quick, friendly and efficient, and the food came out really quickly, much more so than when I go to Pho Hoa; they always seem to take forever for the same dish. I got a vermicelli dish along with a milk tea and both were quite good. When the person who brought the food came by, I asked for some ice water. That came quickly, as well, but what wasn't provided was the information that you get charged for that ice water!

Read moreCoffee Lovers on Tully and King Rd blends Vietnamese comfort food with a laid-back café vibe. The banh mi is crisp and flavorful, with well-seasoned meats and fresh veggies that hold up even after a long drive.

It’s the kind of spot where you can grab a quick bite or linger with friends over drinks.
The space is clean and functional, with indoor seating that’s quiet enough for conversation. Staff are friendly and efficient, though the menu layout could use clearer labeling for dietary options. Open until midnight daily, it’s a reliable go-to for late-night cravings, especially when most other places have closed up. Whether you’re solo or with a small group, it’s a solid pick for comfort and...
Read moreWhen my dad told me he was going to take me to "Coffee Lovers", I assumed it would be a similar to a Starbucks or Peets, so I was blown away when they had a HUGE selection of food, snacks, smoothies, teas and milk teas! They also have so many places to sit and work and tables to bring groups to socialize. I ordered the Taro Milk Tea and I am not lying when I tell you that it was one of, if not the most delicious taro milk tea I have EVER had. I dinged one star because the ice was filled all the way to the brim on all of the drinks and I'm not sure if adjusting the ice level was allowed. One tiny sip and like, a fourth of the drink was gone. Otherwise, I highly recommend if...
